Game Thread: Spurs vs Grizzlies -- Wed. (11/29) - 7:30/C (3:30am Riga Time)

[TheGreatYacht]

50 Mills is 0-5 so far

[Ron Swanson]

Give LMA the ball and get the out of the way.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Andrew Harrison shoots 20% from 3 on the season, Ben McLemore shoots 14.3% from 3 on the season. Both had made back to back 3s.

[Robz4000]

God damn a loss tonight could lead to a four game losing streak.

[sasaint]

Will Tony close this game?

[DAF86]

How many offensive rebounds does Gay pretend to allow his man? That needs to learn how to box-out.

[bklynspursfan]

True, I get what you're saying and it would had required for Manu to retire as Manu likes the ball on his hands when he's out there but you never know. Would had been sick.

Yea true. That move changes other things, didn't even think of Manu. He might've seen that as a Manu replacement possibly. The thought of it sounds good tho, having several threats out there with size who are legit scorers.

Hopefully Forbes, BP3, or someone can become that

Typical team balling out after a coaches firing. Makes the Spurs' lack of effort even more frustrating.

Sean said he's done for the night.

[TimDunkem]

Too bad our only real PG has to sit. Now there's no one out there to settle down and get LMA the damn ball.

[TimDunkem]

Mills lost his guy again. Lucky they missed that time.

[SAGirl]

Yep. Manu made two very nice cuts. Otherwise he was a negative. But, as we know, in order for somebody else to step up, Pop will need to indulge them a bit rather that fall back on Manu. I don't see that happening. Manu will have to retire before Pop will quit going to him.

its a shame bc he's not better right now than other options. It's also a shame Murray didn't blow the compe ion out of the water and made it indisputable bc him still being raw makes an excuse for Pop.

Murray may yet keep improving. He's still getting minutes, which I am glad to see

[sasaint]

Sean said he's done for the night.

Thanks. I missed it. I wasn't counting Tony's minutes, but the way he was playing, I was kinda hoping...

[DAF86]

Patty the closer.

[TimDunkem]

Mills stupid shot bailed out with the bank.

[dabom]

MVP closing. ST melting.

[Robz4000]

Thanks. I missed it. I wasn't counting Tony's minutes, but the way he was playing, I was kinda hoping...

Same. His play could really end up being the difference between a win and a loss tonight. He's a big reason LMA is going off.

[SAGirl]

I can't make sense of the rotations this entire game to be fair... Paul and Murray don't play for the entire first 3 Q, but Pop is putting them in the 4th Q.

[sasaint]

Patty the closer.

Bank on it...

Yep. Just holding my breath.

[dabom]

I'm the only person having fun on a win.

Been his M.O. for years. He usually has a superstar to bail him out but not this season (albeit LMA is playing like one tonight).

Pop did the same with Murray on the previous game. The plan is for Tony to play 15 minutes total, the first 5 minutes of the first three quarters. That's why Murray has been starting the 4th.

I thought BP3 got one short stint in the first half... Otherwise, you are right. Insane scientist mode.
